How long can you live after having your uterus removed for malignant cervical cancer

In our lives, we often ignore our own health problems and suffer from a certain disease unknowingly. Here, the editor would like to introduce you to the advanced stage of cervical cancer. Because many readers ask how long can you live with advanced cervical cancer, we will answer this question below.

The right treatment plan is the main factor in how long you can live with advanced cervical cancer

Whether the treatment of advanced cervical cancer is appropriate is the most important factor that determines how long patients with advanced cervical cancer can survive. Generally speaking, most advanced cervical cancers have already metastasized and cannot be surgically removed. Clinically, the treatments for advanced cervical cancer mainly include radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. The method of radiotherapy varies depending on the specific situation of the patient, and a combination of internal and external radiation is often used. Chemotherapy often uses combined radiotherapy. Among various chemotherapy drugs, cisplatin is the most widely used and relatively effective drug for the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. It has the dual effects of a chemotherapy drug and a radiosensitizer.

As the duration of chemotherapy increases, the toxicity of treatment also gradually increases. Therefore, the chemotherapy drugs and duration of chemotherapy should be determined based on the tumor relief, symptom relief, and treatment-related toxicity. In addition, in view of the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy on the human body, traditional Chinese medicine such as ginsenoside Rh2 can be combined with treatment in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer to enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity. For patients with advanced cervical cancer who have a wide range of metastases, weak physical functions, and who can no longer tolerate chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conservative treatment. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good, and it is effective in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.

A reasonable diet is an important factor in how long patients with advanced cervical cancer can live

Improvement of the patient's physical function is also an important factor in determining how long patients with advanced cervical cancer can live. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can patients resist the development of cancer and tolerate various drug treatments. Therefore, improving immune function and enhancing resistance to tumors is extremely important for patients with advanced cervical cancer. In terms of diet, patients should supplement their intake of β-carotene and vitamin C; supplement trace elements zinc and selenium; and eat more soybeans and their products.

Patients' optimistic attitude can also prolong the survival rate of advanced cervical cancer

The patient's optimistic attitude can also prolong the survival rate of advanced cervical cancer. Patients with advanced cervical cancer should maintain an optimistic attitude and actively cooperate with treatment. With the continuous improvement of treatment methods, new treatment methods and drugs are increasingly used in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. The survival of patients with advanced cervical cancer is significantly higher than before.
